Oprah Winfrey said she didn’t want the ABC soaps when they were cancelled. But now her OWN network will air both “All My CHildren” and “One Life to Live” for 10 weeks beginning July 15th. It’s great news for soap fans but almost comical considering how many press releases Prospect Park, which licensed the soaps for online viewing, produce in a single day. Only earlier today Prospect Park, which had changed their schedule, sent out a new missive about online viewing that made no sense. Now they’re going to air the first 4o episodes of each show on a daily basis, at 1pm and 3pm respectively. I think. Meanwhile. om Hulu and iTunes they’re going to release two new episodes of each show on Mondays. Or something. Won’t the cable versions eat into the online viewing? It would seem like it. But the soap belong on TV so it’s a good thing. Whatever it is.
